We’ve all gotten used to playing it one way and then u change it so I can’t time a thing. I literally can’t time a ball properly. Every time it tell me I’m early and if not it’s too late and it hits my stumps

Please change it back

Please can you either add an option to save my field settings when I am bowling or can you improve the game so it remembers.  I am captain and yet the game keeps changing the field as it likes. If I could save my home made field settings at least I could make the change in two clicks.

Also do you have any tips on getting a return catch when bowling? 

This is so close to be an excellent  game

Thanks

There are still some issues that remain after the patch.

When you come on to bowl, your career stats still show the incorrect best bowling figures. It shows the most economical not the most wickets.
There was an issue with the batting stats too where if your high score was a not out it didn't show and not out scores didn't count towards your 50s/100s in your overall stats, can anyone confirm if this still exists? I haven't played long enough to test it.
When you return from a bowling spell, you still can't change the field until you have bowled 1 delivery, it simply ignores your selections.
I got 2 wickets off 1 delivery. I got an edge to the keeper and the keeper attempted a stumping straight away, the catch was given out and then it went to the 3rd umpire for the stumping which was also given out and I was awarded 2 wickets.

The new timing is annoying for now, you have to play much later than before. It isn't causing to many issues for me, it will just take time to adjust. I would like to know why there would be such a huge change to this?

Well this seems to be a waste of time.....
